(Waitlist) Anyone Can Draw! Travel Sketching (In-Person) June 10, 2023

*This class is full, but you can sign up to be on the waitlist. If a spot opens up, we will contact you and you will have to officially register and pay at that time. There is also a class on July 22 with space.*

Learn to draw and get more out of traveling! ‘Moment sketching’ is capturing the moment, expressing how you feel about what you are observing and sketching. It’s the perfect approach for traveling, as it will help you become more observant and expand your traveling experience.

A wise man once said the only way to learn how to sketch, is to sketch! Want to learn?

This class will introduce drawing and design concepts (line, shape, value, perspective, shade, shadow, composition) in a supportive atmosphere. The idea is to do a rough sketch that is not overly detailed, to simply observe and then sketch. Don’t pressure yourself to be accurate (accuracy is for cameras) but rather to get into a rhythm and sketch from the right side of your brain. We’ll use the interesting architecture of local buildings in Marine as the subject of our beginning drawings.

Students are asked to bring:

• 2B and 4B pencils
• Eraser
• Sketch pad (from 4X6 to 9X12)
• Light foldable lawn chair

We highly recommend you bring a lunch as this class does go over the lunch hour.
